Hydrogen trucks from VDL and Toyota: A Step toward Emission-Free Transport! VDL Special Vehicles and Toyota Deliver Hydrogen Trucks.

Eindhoven, Netherlands - In May 2023, the cooperation between VDL Special Vehicles and Toyota Motor Europe (TME) was announced as an important milestone in the transition to sustainable transport solutions. We are proud to produce TME’s first hydrogen-powered fuel cell trucks resulting from this promising collaboration. Equipped with Toyota's advanced fuel cell technology, these demo trucks are not just a step forward, but a leap towards a lower carbon Europe.

VDL De Meeuw was selected by the Belgian Buildings Agency as the winner of the framework contract for the construction of small-scale detention houses in Belgium. These innovative facilities are a crucial link in the execution of short-term sentences and focus on reintegration and self-sufficiency. Mainly thanks to its pioneering modular construction method that it developed in house, VDL De Meeuw emerged as the best party in the tendering procedure. In addition to the 600 housing units in detention houses, the federal government can deploy the framework contract for other projects with a total of 500 additional housing and reception units.
